Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coated fabric suitable for air-bags.
  • the present invention relates to a fabric useful for protecting the periphery of an opening, which is for connection with an inflator, in an air-bag main body.
  • An air-bag device is a device to protect automobile occupants in the case of a collision of the automobile by inflating the air-bag instantly.
  • the air-bag device usually includes: an inflator serving as a gas generator; and an air-bag made of a synthetic fabric designed to inflate with an inflator gas.
  • the gas ejected from the inflator is very hot. Therefore, the periphery of an inflator connection opening, with which the hot gas makes direct contact, is treated to increase its heat resistance.
  • Patent Document 1 a base fabric for an air-bag in the form of a bag, whose inlet for an inflator gas has increased heat resistance because a part of the air-bag for connection with the inflator is partially coated with a thick resin.
  • Patent Document 1 a base fabric for an air-bag in the form of a bag, whose inlet for an inflator gas has increased heat resistance because a part of the air-bag for connection with the inflator is partially coated with a thick resin.
  • this technique is to apply a light coating of resin to the entire surface of the base fabric and thereafter apply the second coating to a necessary part, and thus has a problem in that the coating has to be performed a plurality of times and this leads to increased costs.
  • Patent Document 3 a method by which a reinforcing fabric or the like is polymerized on the periphery of an opening for connection with an inflator and the fabric is sewed on the periphery. This technique is to stack two reinforcing fabrics on the base fabric for an air-bag main body.

  • EP-A-0866164 concerns a coated woven fabric.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a highly heat-resistant fabric that can reduce damage to a base fabric for an air-bag main body from a hot gas generated from an inflator.
  • the present inventors have made a consideration in order to attain the above object and, as a result, found that it is possible to attain the object with the use of a coated fabric comprising a three dimensional construction woven fabric as defined in the accompanying claim 1.

  • the three dimensional construction woven fabric 2 is coated with an elastomer resin constituting an elastomer resin layer 4. In a space between the fibers, or, in some cases, in a space enclosed by the fibers and resin, there is a void 5 having an appropriate volume.
  • Examples of the material for the fibers constituting the three dimensional construction woven fabric include synthetic fibers such as polyamide fibers, polyester fibers, aramid fibers, rayon fibers, polysulfone fibers, and ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene fibers. Of these, polyamide fibers and polyester fibers are preferable because of their excellent mass-producibility and economic efficiency.
  • polyamide fibers examples include fibers made from: nylon 6; nylon 66; nylon 12; nylon 46; copolyamides of nylon 6 and nylon 66; copolyamides obtained by copolymerizing nylon 6 with a polyalkylene glycol, a dicarboxylic acid, an amine, or the like; or the like.
  • Nylon 6 fibers and nylon 66 fibers are preferable because of their particularly excellent shock resistance.
  • polyester fibers include fibers made from polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, or the like. Fibers made from copolyesters obtained by copolymerizing polyethylene terephthalate or polybutylene terephthalate with isophthalic acid, 5-sodium sulfoisophthalic acid, or an aliphatic dicarboxylic acid such as adipic acid, which serves as an acid component, may also be used.

  • a combination of a homopolymer and a copolymer is also acceptable as polymers of the same kind in the present invention.
  • the polymers equally have, or equally do not have, the same kind of copolymer component in the same amount, such polymers are preferable also in terms of production management because the warp and weft yarns do not have to be handled as different yarns.
  • the warp and weft yarns have the same total fineness or the same single fiber fineness
  • the difference between total finenesses or the difference between single fiber finenesses is within 5% of the smaller one of the finenesses of the warp and weft yarns.

  • Such synthetic fibers cannot keep voids and tend not to increase the void content.
  • Synthetic fibers having a total fineness of 700 dtex or smaller are capable of keeping more suitable flexibility during storage and keeping a desirable void content.
  • the total fineness is more preferably 300 to 650 dtex, even more preferably 400 to 600 dtex.
  • the synthetic fibers having a total fineness within this range make it possible to achieve balanced improvements in strength, flexibility and void content of a woven fabric.

This is because a single fiber fineness of 1 dtex or greater makes it possible to produce synthetic fiber filaments without special arrangements, and a single fiber fineness of 7 dtex or smaller improves the flexibility of synthetic fiber filaments.
  • the single fiber fineness is more preferably 2 to 6.8 dtex, even more preferably 3 to 6.6 dtex.

  • the coated fabric of the present invention has a void in a woven fabric.
  • the percentage of the void is preferably 15 to 60%.
  • Void content % Apparent mass ⁇ Actual mass / Acutal mass ⁇ 100
  • the thickness of an uncoated base fabric and the thickness of a coated base fabric are found.
  • the difference between the thicknesses of the uncoated base fabric and the coated base fabric is used as the thickness of a resin.
  • the volume of the uncoated base fabric and the volume of the resin layer are found from a test piece, and the apparent mass is found from the density of fibers constituting the base fabric and the density of the resin which coats the base fabric. The apparent mass is calculated from the following equation.
  • the void content is calculated from the obtained apparent mass and actual mass.
  • the thickness of the uncoated base fabric is found in the following manner: a photograph of a cross section of the coated base fabric is taken with a scanning electron microscope, and the thickness of a base fabric portion, which is a three dimensional construction woven fabric, and the thickness of a resin portion are found.
  • the density of the original yarn is found by picking out a fiber with no resin attached.
  • the density of the resin is found by dissolving the original yarn in a solvent that dissolves the original yarn but does not dissolve the resin and using the remaining resin.
  • An example of a solvent that dissolves nylon 66 is formic acid, and an example of a solvent that dissolves polyethylene terephthalate is hexafluoroisopropanol.
  • the density can be found by method A (water replacement method), method B (pycnometer method), method C (sink-float method), or method D (density gradient tube method) of JIS K7112 (1999).
  • test pieces in the form of a square measuring 20 cm ⁇ 20 cm are taken out from five positions and measured, and the mean of the void contents calculated using the test pieces is used.
  • the coated fabric having a void content within the above range brings about the heat insulation effect and thus improves heat resistance.
  • the coated fabric having a low void content cannot bring about a sufficient heat insulation effect, and the coated fabric having a high void content cannot keep the thickness as a fabric and has a tendency to have a crushed woven fabric structure. Therefore, the void content is more preferably 20% or higher, whereas the upper limit of the void content is 60% or lower, preferably 40% or lower.
  • At least one surface of a woven fabric needs to be coated with an elastomer resin layer. This makes it possible to protect the woven fabric from a hot gas generated from an inflator.
  • the elastomer resin for coating the woven fabric is preferably a heat-resistant, cold-resistant, and flame-resistant resin.
  • the elastomer resin include silicone resins, polyamide resins, polyurethane resins, and fluororesins. Of these, silicone resins are particularly preferable in view of heat resistance and low air permeability.
  • the silicone resins include dimethyl silicone resins, methylvinyl silicone resins, methylphenyl silicone resins, and fluoro silicone resins.
  • the resin for coating the woven fabric contain a flame-resistant compound.
  • the flame-resistant compound include: halogenated compounds containing bromine, chlorine, or the like; platinum compounds; antimony oxide; copper oxide; titanium oxide; phosphorus compounds; thiourea compounds; carbon; cerium; and silicon oxide.
  • halogenated compounds in particular halogenated cycloalkanes, platinum compounds, copper oxide, titanium oxide, and carbon are more preferable.
  • the amount of the resin for coating the woven fabric, which is applied to one surface of the woven fabric is 50 to 500 g/m 2 .
  • the upper limit is preferably 400 g/m 2 or less, more preferably 300 g/m 2 or less, even more preferably 250 g/m 2 or less.
  • the lower limit is preferably 100 g/m 2 or more.
  • An amount of the resin within this range makes it possible to achieve both the heat resistance and flexibility of the coated fabric for an air-bag.
  • the amount of the resin attached to the surface is 50 g/m 2 or more, it is possible to cover the surface of the woven fabric in a uniform manner and to achieve heat resistance and good followability to a connection part.
  • the other surface of the three dimensional construction woven fabric does not have to be coated. Note, however, that the other surface is also preferably coated for improved heat resistance.
  • the thickness is 500 g/m 2 or less, more preferably 200 g/m 2 or less, even more preferably 100 g/m 2 or less.
  • the lower limit is preferably 50 g/m 2 or more. In the case where the amount of the resin attached to the other surface is equal to or smaller than the above-described level, it is possible to improve heat resistance and flexibility.
  • the resin covers the surface of the woven fabric in a uniform manner, and it is possible to improve heat resistance and achieve flexibility and possible to enhance the heat insulation effect brought about by the void formed inside the three dimensional construction woven fabric.
  • the coated fabric of the present invention preferably has a thickness of 0.5 to 2.5 mm, more preferably 0.7 to 2.3 mm, even more preferably 0.9 to 2.0 mm.
